Welcome to DPD!The DPD Project is a thematic mix-CD project created by music geeks and best friends Chris Diamond, Chris Prokop, and Michael Darpino. Each CD in the project has a theme that ties the songs on it together. For every theme we each pick five songs that we feel best represent it. The collected fifteen songs are then mixed together in alternating order based on our last names. The songs that end up on DPD are meant to be the very best songs for their particular theme. We write liner notes for each song to explain why we picked it for that theme. The project has grown into a sort of musical memoir over the years since music has been and still is such a huge part of our lives. Most Recent Discs:

Random DPD Pick:The Only One I Know by: The Charlatans UK from: Some Friendly Picked By: darpino For: DPD: 035 - My Life in Music (Darpino) After we moved to the country or as I liked to call it the "Cunt-ry", I started at a new School. My parents convinced me that this was a chance for a fresh start and all that. Maybe I'd fit in better at my new High School. So they pressured me into trying to fit in. They dressed me up in all the hip clothes and sent me on my way. Of course it didn't work. I stuck out like a sore thumb. The clothes didn't fit me right, I was surrounded by morons and people hated my guts. I made a few misfit friends but that was about it. That freshmen year was a bust. I did however discover that I was very smart, I hated everybody around me and that I didn't give a damn any more. That summer was going to be the summer of Mike. I got accepted to a College Level International Affairs seminar in DC and stayed at GW for a week. I fit in much better with all these kids who were 5-6 years older than me. On that trip I really came into my own. The summer of Mike was in full swing. I saw the video for this song on that trip. Not only did the song blow me away (these guys are great) but it also made think that these guys all had really cool hair. Thanks to this song my new style was born. I went into my sophmore year with a skater ledge across the back of my head and bangs down to my chest. My hip clothes were replaced with whatever I thought was cool and I added my trenchcoat, my fedora and my combat boots to the wardrobe. From that point on High School still sucked but at least I was being true to myself and because of that I gained respect from everyone. |
